### Moving Bundle Alignment Stations

To move to a new Bundle Alignment station:

1. Measure all the features that you can measure from the first tracker position.

2. Create new station in one of these ways:

- Select the Tracker | Station Management menu item.

- Click in the station name of the Tracker status bar.

3. Click Add to add a new station to the Stations list and then click Close.

If you use points, make sure that the probe compensation has been turned off before you insert a bundle alignment command.

4. Select the Insert | Alignment | Bundle menu item to insert a Bundle alignment command. All point-reducible features, like points, circles, and spheres, are displayed under Station 1 and can be selected to be part of the bundle alignment.

7. Click to add the selected features to the Active Station list for the next station.

The Status bar indicates if the station is not yet oriented in the bundle network by highlighting it in red, like this:

10. Review the overall results from the "Results Tab" once all necessary features have been measured. The results for the measured features provide the source station, orientation, RMS errors, and variance.

11. If Solution Status reads OK, click OK to insert a bundle alignment command into the measurement routine. The new station is now oriented and available in the network.

If necessary, you can exclude certain features from the actual bundle computation and recompute it on the Setup tab.

12. Complete the previous steps if you are moving to the next station position.
